Well, it is time to review another product from Monster, and this time it is the PowerCard. I will be quick and honest with my review. The PowerCard is a Mobile Portable Battery, and it is a product that I have reviewed many a time. I am going to have to say that this version is different because it is smaller and very convenient. The PowerCard is about the … [Read more...] about Some New Monster Products, Part 2: Mobile PowerCard
Vivitar Bluetooth Remote 40-inch Selfie Monopod
I must admit that I have little experience with Selfies, except for the iVideoStick, a product that was probably one of the first selfie sticks that I never had the privilege to review. Fortunately, Vivitar was nice enough to send me their particular Bluetooth Remote 40" Selfie Monopod. This one has a telescoping pole with a spring-loaded gripper for the smartphone on the … [Read more...] about Vivitar Bluetooth Remote 40-inch Selfie Monopod
Some New Monster Products, Part 1: Selfie Case
I've been in touch with Monster a lot lately, and after attending their press conference at CES 2016 as well as their awards ceremony (which I'll detail at some other time), I have just been given the chance to try out the Selfie Case. It's pretty clear that we live in a selfie-obsessed society, as I have a daughter who takes at least a few per day. I don't think it is a … [Read more...] about Some New Monster Products, Part 1: Selfie Case
Hands on with the Innergie 45-Watt USB-C Laptop Adaptor
It's been a while since we reviewed an Innergie product, and they are very good at making some power supplies. In the case of the PowerGear USB-C 45, it is a 45-Wat USB-C Laptop Adapter. This guy has a USB-C reversable plug, allowing it to be inserted both ways, so you don't have to check if you're doing it right. All I have to say to that is: "Thank you". You will … [Read more...] about Hands on with the Innergie 45-Watt USB-C Laptop Adaptor
Bloxitivity Game
Well, I have to admit that this Bloxitivity Game is interesting, but I'm not certain how original it is. For some reason, I can't seem to place where I have played a game like this before, but I believe that I have played it, let me explain: Bloxitivity is a game where you have to move some cubes into certain places, but it is difficult to do that due to some obstacles. … [Read more...] about Bloxitivity Game
Our Review of the AtmosFlare 3D Drawing Pen
I don't know if you have heard of a pen known as the 3Doodler, but it is a 3D drawing pen. I have been trying for about two years to obtain a review unit of this product, but they did not respond to me. Today, I got a chance to try out the AtmosFlare, and I'm going to recommend it and not the 3Doodler out of spite alone. Okay, that was probably going too far, but I'm … [Read more...] about Our Review of the AtmosFlare 3D Drawing Pen
Matias Ergo Pro Keyboard
This isn't the first time that I have reviewed a Matias product, and after I saw them at CES 2016, I was pleased that they developed an ergonomic edition of their "quiet mechanical" keyboards with the Ergo Pro. So, this would be my first time typing on one of these ergonomic keyboards. Seriously, I have actually not tried this. I realize in this day and age, it sounds … [Read more...] about Matias Ergo Pro Keyboard
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Devil’s Advocate
Last week, I told you that I enjoyed the Keanu Reeves movie of Constantine, a story filled with angels and demons, even if they are not necessarily biblical in their depiction. While I am comfortable watching a film where spiritual warfare takes a very physical form, I just found that I had a hard time believing in the basic concept behind this film. Before I get to … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Devil’s Advocate
Lynktec Reeljuice, a mobile battery with a four-foot retractable cord
This was another product that I found at CES 2016 and was glad that I had a chance to try out. I have to say that the Reeljuice from Lynktec is a mobile battery, which I have reviewed many times in the past. This Reeljuice could beat them all, with uniqueness alone. You see in the illustrations how it separates into three pieces, and I'll talk about the biggest one … [Read more...] about Lynktec Reeljuice, a mobile battery with a four-foot retractable cord
UAG Part 2: Magma Folio Case for the iPad 2 and Cobalt Case for the Surface Pro 4
Okay, today we are back with Under Armor Gear (UAG) once again, and this time we are reviewing two products: The Magma for the iPad Air 2 and the Cobalt for the Surface Pro 4. We'll start with the Apple product with a feather-light construction, as well as a soft core. Unlike the hard plastic case that I reviewed in Part 1, this one feels soft all over. It is soft … [Read more...] about UAG Part 2: Magma Folio Case for the iPad 2 and Cobalt Case for the Surface Pro 4
Tunebelt AB88 and AB89
It has been a while since I reviewed a Tunebelt product. Today, I'm going to do two with what the company sent me with the AB89 and the AB88. Even thought this is out of order, I'll start with the AB89. This particular sport armband is for iPhone 6/6S, and it will fit it if you have one of those Otterbox cases, or maybe one from UAG (you know, something similar). That … [Read more...] about Tunebelt AB88 and AB89
UAG Part 1: Trooper for the iPhone 6 and ICE HTC One M9 Case
Okay, today is the day where we are going to review two UAG products, one of them is for the iPhone 6/6S and the other for the HTC One M9, my current personal smartphone. If you aren't familiar with UAG, it stands for Under Armor Gear, and it is great protection. The Trooper for the iPhone 6 might be named because it holds things, like a trooper. The things it can hold … [Read more...] about UAG Part 1: Trooper for the iPhone 6 and ICE HTC One M9 Case
Boomstick by Boomcloud 360
In case you are wondering, I am really having a hard time not saying: "All right, you primitive screw-heads, this is my Boomstick". In addition to the reference to Ash from Army of Darkness, this is quite a good product from Boomcloud 360. So let's go with my second intro: in my review of the Monster Clarity HD earbuds, I talk about how the company declared war against … [Read more...] about Boomstick by Boomcloud 360
Belkin NetCam HD+ Wi-Fi Camera with Night Vision
I have reviewed many Belkin products and they really have a huge diversity for what they make. This particular product reminds me of the Dropcam, another product that I have reviewed in the past. This NetCam allows for streaming video just about anywhere to your smartphone and tablet, and there is no computer required, just connect it to your home's Wi-Fi router. It is as … [Read more...] about Belkin NetCam HD+ Wi-Fi Camera with Night Vision
Our Review of the Keurig Kold Drinkmaker
At CES 2016, my wife and I had a great time trying out gadgets, and we were grateful to discover that Keurig was willing to send a Keurig KOLD Drinkmaker to us for testing out for this article. I will have to say that we our reviews of it are…mixed. I will explain that it is more than just a pun. In case you can’t tell by the name, The Keurig KOLD Drinkmaker is made to … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Keurig Kold Drinkmaker
